Teacher stabbed to death by 15 year old boy

The 61-year-old victim, who the BBC understands was Spanish teacher Anne Maguire, was taken to hospital but later pronounced dead.
A 15-year-old boy was detained by teaching staff and later arrested.
Police said there was "no ongoing risk to pupils or staff". Downing Street said the prime minister's thoughts were with the victim's family.
Two pupils at the scene told the BBC that children were seen screaming and running from a classroom following the attack.
A West Yorkshire Police spokesman said Mrs Maguire received a number of stab wounds and a knife was recovered from the scene.

The 15-year-old pupil was detained by other members of teaching staff and arrested in connection with the stabbing, he added.
No-one else was injured in the attack and no other student or member of staff was threatened, the spokesman said.
He said the attack was an "unprecedented event" and schools in Leeds were "generally very safe places" to work and study.
Staff members were "in shock" and Mrs Maguire's death would "understandably have a massive impact" on her family and the school, he added.

The BBC's education correspondent Sean Coughlan said the incident would bring back memories of Philip Lawrence, a head teacher who was killed outside a school in Maida Vale, London, in 1995.
Mr Lawrence was murdered when he went to help a pupil who was being attacked.
The call to police in Leeds came from the ambulance service shortly before 12:00 BST.

I'm laughing at this thread already, Chriiist.

There isn't really much you can say about this really, it's just awful.

And miss the look of horrific realisation on the victims face as the knife plunges into their supple flesh?

I think not.

The Met hotel on King Street.
It claims to be 4-star, but it's clear to anyone staying there that it bloody well isn't.

It's a female teacher.

A teenage boy has been arrested after a female teacher died following a stabbing at a high school in Leeds. Police say the 15-year-old is being held in connection with the attack at Corpus Christi Catholic College. Officers were called to the secondary school at 11.48am after they were contacted by the ambulance service following a report a member of staff had been stabbed. The woman was taken to hospital for treatment but was subsequently pronounced dead.

A male teacher would be less sad?

Moggy, I knew how that would come across when I typed it. I just mean of course it is just as wrong and sad for a boy to stab a male teacher in some warped way maybe they would see a male as a threat, but what possible way could could a boy see his female teacher as a threat?

Was she fit?
